Garner’s family and neighbors said they don’t believe that and want the person responsible to be arrested.

Family members are vowing to rebuild the memorial.

Garner died in July after police officers attempted to arrest him for allegedly selling loose, untaxed cigarettes.

In cellphone video of the incident, NYPD Officer Daniel Pantaleo is seen placing his arm around Garner’s neck in an apparent chokehold and then taking him to the ground after Garner refuses to be handcuffed.

Garner is heard saying repeatedly, “I can’t breathe!” He died a short time later.
